Our little Hayes is getting not-so-little all too fast. He is 8 months now! It's weird to think that in 4 months we'll be celebrating his first birthday, but on the other hand I can't remember when we were just a family of four. This guy has a smile on his face most of the time, he laughs, spits, and talks- nonstop. He is very determined, he'll growl, dive, and army crawl to get to what he wants and is not afraid to bite or scratch if you get in his way. We all love him to pieces and have fun watching him grow and get into everything.

Christmas Review

I know I'm behind but wanted to review Christmas time, before it's forgotten. Plus who knows if I'll loose these pictures too.

A week before Christmas it started snowing one night. Along with the snow came excitement, fun, and the Christmas Spirit.

Bo with his snowman (seconds before he fell apart). Brax, Bo, and friends behind their snow fort.
The boys spent their days outside building snowmen and snow forts. It was heaven...for the two days it lasted.

We had a little Christmas party with the Hickman side of our family. We stuffed little animals (not real) for kids in other countries. It was such a great night, all the adults even got into it. Afterwards we roasted marshmallows and drank hot chocolate. We love our cousins.

Had to post this picture, he's so cute!

Saw Santa! Hayes wasn't so sure. Bo asked for injas (ninjas) and Brax asked for a DS (and was willing to bet his dad $100 that he would get it).

Went to Lehi and spent Christmas with My side.

Growing up we Always went to my G & G Peck's house on Christmas Eve to spend it with all of my Mom's family. My Grandma spoils us all and my Grandpa just sits back and enjoys it. Great company and lots of love. We all had a blast hanging out with the fam.

Hayes was lovin his first Christmas. Spoiled!

Spoiled!!

Spoiled!!! Brax got a pellet gun. SCaRy!!!

Went to Grandma Vic's and opened our Christmas Eve jamies with cousin Bai Bai.

Christmas morning woke up to Grandpa Kirkie yelling. Got spoiled even more by Grandma Vic (daughter of Gma Peck - comes by it honestly). I'm so grateful that my parents still take care of each other and can hang out and make it enjoyable for the rest of us despite not being married anymore. Thanks for everything Mom and Dad, we love you both. (Sorry not the best pic. The only one I had.)

We took the long way home so that we could celebrate cousin Bailee's 2nd birthday. My boys loved hanging out with her and her pets and especially the money cake.

Had a great New Year's Eve. Thanks Summer and Nick. And later thanks Grammy and Gpa Oso for letting us have a night out.

Matt My Love

Once Upon a time...Over seven years ago I became friends with this funny, good looking, sweet talkin guy. After months of him laying it on thick with his charm and smooth lines, I called his bluff, "Why don't you quit sweet talking me and ask me out" (or something like that). My ploy worked and he did just that. To my surprise he had more than just looks and charm, he was an all-around great guy. I was in LIKE. I liked how I felt with this guy, more than any other person I've met.

Little did I know that this guy would be the answer to my prayers, changing my life and the course of it ENTIRELY. The middle of this story is Good there's; romance, comedy, action (with three boys, that's a given), and a fair share of drama. But it's getting late.

I just want to wish You, the most amazing husband I've ever had a Very Happy Anniversary. I feel extremely grateful to be your wife. Thank you for putting up with me and making my life so great (You will never know how much I honestly mean that). I really look forward to the many years I get to spend with you. Thanks for a great day of being with you.

Love Always- Me

Oh ...P.S. You can quit sweet talkin me now, if you wanna make out just ask!!!

P.S.S. Scanner broken, pictures later.
